Colonial Occupations
Today is a day I will be working on pottery. I love working here because you get
to make all kinds of stuff and we get to make bowls,mugs,and jugs
for the colonists that need it in their everyday lives.I also love that these
bowls,mugs,and jugs are made out of clay.Why I love it is because I love getting creative.
Sometimes in our spare time we would make pottery and sell them to our neighbors.
We also had our own colonial kitchen that had plenty of pottery.Some early colonial pots,called
redware,were glazed with lead.If you add sand to the clay it would be made stronger.making
pots were lots of work.a pottery needed to be coordinated to use a will.
